Reds Pitching Struggles, Lose Series To Marlins.

By HD.

John Buck snapped a tie with a seventh-inning homer, one of a season-high five hit by the Florida Marlins in a 9-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Sunday.

Buck followed Greg Dobbs' leadoff single with his third home run of the season and second of the series, giving the Marlins the lead in a game in which all of Florida's runs came on homers. Buck, who finished with three hits, had a three-run shot in the first inning of Florida's 7-6 win on Friday.

Reds starter Bronson Arroyo allowed a season-high three home runs. Arroyo (3-3) gave up seven hits with two walks and three strikeouts in seven innings while falling to 1/3 in his last four starts.

Florida right-hander Ricky Nolasco (3-0) allowed three runs and six hits in seven innings to help the Marlins take two of three in the series.
